Sinopsis

Haiku Origins explores the captivating evolution of haiku, revealing its journey from classical Japanese poetry to a globally embraced art form. Delving into literary and cultural history, the book illuminates how elements like kigo (seasonal word) and kireji (cutting word) contribute to haiku's layered meanings within its concise structure.

 
Haiku's deceptively simple 5-7-5 syllable structure belies its profound artistry, offering a unique vessel for capturing fleeting moments and evoking emotions. The book traces haiku's roots in earlier Japanese forms like tanka and hokku, highlighting its development through the works of master poets such as Basho and Issa. Understanding haiku's historical context, including the influence of Zen Buddhism and the Edo period, is key to appreciating its significance.

 
Each chapter builds upon the last, beginning with historical predecessors and culminating in an examination of haiku's global spread and impact on other art forms. By analyzing original Japanese haiku and critical essays, Haiku Origins connects to broader fields like history, cultural studies, and linguistics. It emphasizes the dynamic interplay between form and content, showing how the constraints of the structure enhance creative possibilities, making it valuable to both academic readers and anyone interested in poetry or Japanese culture.

    “By far the most thorough and well-written investigative book on RMS Titanic’s short life and tragic sinking that this reviewer has read . . . fascinating.” —Choice Reviews   The sinking of the Titanic on her maiden voyage in April 1912 was one of the defining moments of the twentieth century. Books and films about the disaster that befell the iconic liner are commonplace, and it seems almost inconceivable that anything fresh can emerge. But there is one angle that has not been covered, and Titanic examines the events of April 1912 from that completely new perspective. John Lang brings the standards of a twenty-first-century accident investigation to bear on the events of April 1912, using his expertise and his investigator’s instinct to determine exactly what happened a century ago, and what important lessons still need to be learned.  “A fascinating account . . . this book looks at the facts from a new perspective and uncovers some unexpected findings. A worthwhile read.” —Royal Naval Sailing Association  “Provides genuine insight into what almost certainly happened before, during and after the ice sliced through the five compartments on the liner’s starboard bow.” —Viewpoint  “Lang, with his experience of marine accident investigation has found an angle in examining events of April 1912 from the perspective of an MAIB officer. His analysis is supported by detailed background material enabling the reader to understand the events of the collision and sinking more fully as he brings the standards of a 21st century investigation to bear on the events in determining exactly what happened and why.” —Flash

    In Deliberative Policymaking, Elizabeth Grant advances a fresh framework for making collective decisions about US schools. Grant argues that education policy can be made better by improving education policymaking methods. Informed by accounts of policymaking actions as well as her own experience, she offers a keen assessment of which components of existing education policy and policymaking have been effective and which have not. 
     
     
     
    Grant presents new approaches to the craft of policymaking. She endorses policy design thinking, including user-centered design; greater attention to education statecraft, such as reinforcing federal-state relations; and partnering with intermediaries who can help policymakers determine where the public interest lies. She underscores how these practices support democratized policymaking and implementation, which can lead to more inclusive, equitable policy. 
     
     
     
    Grant notes that the success of policy work depends on civic capacity to initiate and sustain improvement efforts, and on policy's ability to meet the demands of the time. This book is essential for anyone who makes policy or is interested in education reform.
